- Welcome to What Yacht To Do, a Great Loop Documentary. Today, Rev and Sam went from Port Dalhousie, Ontario over to the Welland Canal. This is the second part where we go through the 2nd lock on the Welland.
We are cruising around America's Great Loop and selected a 1999 Carver 504 named the Here's To Us!! as our Great Loop boat. So much goes into Great Loop planning and we share every trip with you. Welcome aboard!
Here are a few resources that we used for the trip: www.whatyachtt...

Thanks John!
It is always fun to get excited about trip. We are new enough that any trip is exciting. We hope to do many more trips this year to continue the excitement. Be well and best wishes to you both.
Thanks Byron!
That looked easy!
😅
It's been awhile since you posted a video
Yes! We took some time off due to illness but we are back at it!😎
@@WhatYachtToDo Hope things are good now, look forward to your video's
@@WhatYachtToDo Sorry to hear you were sick. Glad you are feeling better.
Why is it required to have 3 crew?
It's because an upbound transit is a bit more turbulent due to the rushing water into the lock. Going from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario is downtown and it is less turbulent going down in the locks. Therefore the Canal requires three people on the boat. Typically one is at the helm and one at the bow and another on the stern. 😃
